Sharp. Apple stores open their doors and those who didn't mind waiting in line for a couple of days (in Hawaii people formed lines 6 days ago) will get this baby. http://iphone.sys-con.com/read/514671.htmhttp://iphone.sys-con.com/read/514671.htm Wed, 12 Mar 2008 08:30:00 GMT Having read lots of articles written about Steve Jobs' announcement about the iPhone SDK, I decided to wait a bit with commenting the announcement of such a big thing, so as to have a broader view of the whole picture.

Specifically, I've been hooked on using Windows Smartphone devices, because of the seamless integration with Outlook and the resulting automatic synchronization of all my contacts, calendar entries, tasks, notes, and e-mail over the air. And my favorite Smartphone so far was the Cingular/AT&T 8525.

'This is akin to your bank having automatic access to your ATM machine and is siphoning money out during all times of the day and night without your knowledge.' Actually, no. Its nothing even remotely like that. Surely one can appreciate the man's anger, but statements like this indicate ignorance of how technology works.
